Watcha looking at there David? Could it be the shattered remains of your career? Must be, ’cause ol’ Davey’s told Teletext that there’s a second X-Files feature film in the works. Makes sense since none of the principle players are doing much of anything else these days …
I’d like to get excited about this but I just can’t. I loved the X-Files in its prime but what they did to that show in the last couple seasons was absolutely horrific, so much so that I can’t even enjoy the earlier stuff any more because I know that they’re just going to undercut and abandon it all in the end anyway. A note to Chris Carter: when your lead character threatens to walk that’s the time to find a good way to wrap the show up rather than looking for ways to drag it on pointlessly and bleed it dry. Don’t bother making this film, there’s no meat left on this carcass …
